Phone Peter Brooking, or Iain Rhodes at Ducati UK, Rally - I'm sure they will help somehow

Guys,

Are you referring to the coil-in-the-cap type thingy that means that a low tension lead runs to each cylinder? Black gizmo about 4-6" long?

If so, and you may know this already, the Ducati item is the same Denso item as fits various Kwak's and Suzuk's with the exception of the rubber boot that seals around the top end.

The key difference is that the Jap one's are £67 and £74 respectively and the Ducati one is supposed to be about £125 full RRP...just check that the first line of the Denso part number is the same - the second bit is the bike specific for the rubber grommit.

Sorry if I'm preaching to the converted, but thought this might be useful for someone - found this out when a mate's ZX9R threw a wobbler the other week and he ended up with a Suzuki one instead.
Cheers

Giles

Can anyone tell me when Ducati 'solved' this problem? i.e. what year bikes?

I had the same problem, paid for a repair the first time... It happened again and this time P&H replaced both coils and sparkplugs under warranty.
